Editor’s Comments

Abstract

Dear Readers, As you may recall from the previous editorial, we made a small but important change to the submission process. Along with the paper, perspective authors now provide a short document addressing the following three questions: a) What are the central questions of your submission and why do they matter to current, and future IS leaders? b) Explain why your recommendations will be compelling for current and future IS leaders. What will IS leaders do differently after reading your recommendations? c) How does the data you collected support your insight and your recommendations? I am also happy to report that early indications confirm the usefulness of this exercise. The addendum is not a burden, because contributors to the MIS Quarterly Executive have typically thought through these questions already. But the addendum is quite valuable to me and to the SEs receiving the paper. It provides a “priming” of our understanding of what the authors see as the key features of their work
